Killed 2 birds with one stone!
1) Turns out PC Pine has a "quasi-online" function I didn't know about when dealing with POP Servers. For the technically challenged, this means it can continuously check my email while it's running (before, once it checked your mail it locked your mailbox and you couldn't get anymore mail while it was open). This is a function I've wanted for YEARS, and the main reason I used a little program called TMail for checking how much mail I had. Now it's setup to check my mail every 15 minutes.
2) And when it checks it, it will download the EMail every 15 minutes, filter spam over to it's own folder, and alert me when REAL EMail comes in. We all win! :D
Now, i've got pine acting like it did in 1994. Only 9 more years of catchup to do. :)
